DriveTime Automotive Group reviews

-Working 50+ Hours a Week. -Yearly "Pay Enhancements" that lead into reduction on commission/bonuses and requiring you to produce more and work longer to make the same amount of money you did last year. -Limited career progression past Sales Advisor and promotions are only awarded to corporate Kool-Aid drinking drones. -Corporate leadership lies to customers and employees alike. -No work life balance. -Selling lemons and leasing broken cars to customers at a high price and high interest rate. -High default rate on loans and cars being returned because they broke down and the repairs were not covered by the "warranty." -Sales Advisors are scared of leasing and selling vehicles due to the fear of the car breaking down and losing a customer and losing the commission. -Most of a Sales Advisor's day is cold calling 60 calls a day, trying to sell cars, dealing with customer complaints, replacing dead car batteries and worrying about making enough money to support their family.

Long hrs. Sometimes I would work bell to bell during tax season 9-9. Or I would be at work until 11-12 at night closing a tough deal. Some customers were very unprepared to by cars. I had to reminded them to bring their driver's lic. Drive time has super high payments and high interest rates. It makes closing cars really hard. After working there for 2 1/2 years I was laid off. They called me in on my day off and made me wait for 2 hrs before I was laid off and given my severance check. It was sad and very deeming and honestly made me loose so much trust in companies. Also there was lost of drama at the store over splitting deals. If you sell cars they treat you great. If you don't produce you will be treated poorly.
